Filed: 2013-08-23
Abstract: The embodiments herein relate to electrochromic window systems and components thereof. In particular, the disclosed embodiments relate to systems where electrochromic devices are powered and/or controlled using photonic energy. In an exemplary embodiment, a laser is driven by a driver to deliver photonic power and/or control information into an optical fiber. The optical fiber carries the power and control information to a photovoltaic converter and a controller. The photovoltaic converter and controller may be included within an insulated glass unit in some embodiments. The photovoltaic converter converts the light energy into electrical energy used to power a transition in an optical state of an electrochromic layer or layers within the insulated glass unit. The controller may be used to control the power delivered to the electrochromic layer(s), such that a smooth transition occurs. In some embodiments, control information may be transmitted in an upstream manner to communicate information regarding, for example, the state of an electrochromic device (e.g., current level of tinting, fault status, etc.).
